So wait...It's okay to cite Twitter or Facebook as having played an integral part in the murder of a person, but it's not okay to make the same link with the gun actually used to kill him? Yep. That makes perfect sense, right there, media.
For the record, I don't feel either should be blamed. While social media facilitated the argument and the gun facilitated the murder, it was, in the end, the man who decided to pull the trigger who must be blamed. If we're going to put an outside influence at the heart of it, let it be the society that provided both the conditions and means to take an argument to such lengths.
